Golden stone on the mountain of mount Kyaikto (Myanmar)

Amazing, after all, the creature is human. In their search of God ready to worship anything but God. However, this Golden stone is an amazing object. Besides, in my opinion, it is very impressive. So, what is this stone and how it got there?

We are talking about the famous Golden stone on the mountain of mount kyaikto (Myanmar, Burma). Stone height 6 metres in girth he is 25 meters. Some sort of machine hanging on the edge of a precipice, balancing on more than km altitude. What keeps it there?

It is not known, but I think everyone can explain science. The people of Burma think that the stone falls into the abyss only through divine power. There's a legend.

In accordance with it once more BC the Buddha was a man and for some reason gave him a lock of her hair. The poor man didn't know what to do with it, and carried it to the king. And the king has stirred up such a thing!

The curls of the Buddha as something walled up in this marble bowl, the bowl was covered with gold. Yes, alas, it is not gold. Don't try anything yourself otkolupyvat: this gold foil with a thickness of several microns.

Since then, it hangs a stone over the precipice Trail... it does not grow. Pilgrims 16 km, just to touch him. Say if 3 times a year to be done this way, you will have fame, respect and wealth.

So the popular trail is not overgrown. Not only the Buddhists of Burma from around the world the pilgrims go! And by the way, on what a fragile basis is a stone. They say he even rocks... But does not fall, supposedly, only because of the hair of the Buddha...))

Such is the religious Shrine...a Buddhist - not Buddhist, if there has not been.

But looks nice, agree?

Especially on this photo:

Do you believe that the stone did not give to fall the miraculous hair of the Buddha? ;)
